Catapult & Arrowball Shooter

An entertaining and educational well made kit that really works. It has very friendly instructions and is easy to separate the parts. My 10 y o grandson loves these kits and he spent about 1.5 hours or so to get them together and working - and they really work well.Only problem was we had to file a couple slots so the pieces would fit. It wasn’t a big deal. He also has been playing with them more than some of the others he has. Would recommend.

At first look, this seems like a nice STEM kit. But then when you start building, the problems keep on coming. First of all, the instructions are really bad. They have printed picture instructions on the back of the target sheet and instructions are not clear. Half the times, the hand of the person making the model in the instructions is actually covering the model and it is unclear of what needs to be done. I am an adult educator and I had to see the video instructions to figure out the steps of the slingshot. The balls provided are of very cheap quality and some of them didn't even fit in the slingshot and got stuck. The wooden pieces seem well cut by the laser but slightly difficult to take out from the sheet. And there were two sets of sheets, one for the catapult and one for the slingshot and some pieces in a seperate plastic pouch. There were many pieces that looked like extras but didn't completely match the original pieces. The locking clips were the worst, specially for the slingshot as they were supposed to align the holes over each other and I had to compare all the pieces to find two that matched. Locking two pieces in place was alsi difficult as a lot of pressure was required (sometimes i had to use my teeth to press smaller pieces into each other). The catapult was slightly easier to make but wheels are useless. They don't move properly. A child will get frustrated with this kit because they will constantly need help from adults.Not gonna purchase anymore kits from this manufacturer for sure.

Great concept, quite easy for 6 year olds to assemble with some help from us. Though it is not very sturdy and sometimes while playing, some parts slip off and need to be reattached, these are very enjoyable toys. My 6 year old grandson happily plays with both the toys tirelessly 😃 great value for money.

My kid is 7 years old he is fix him self and enjoyed a lot.
